No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

It looks like your post doesn't have any tags that I can see by calling from API. The two current replies I see to your post have a tag of type "mention" for you because they are responses to you. After I post this, I'll see what tags this one includes (as I am on kbin so it may work differently).
On kbin, I have found that posts to a magazine automatically include a tag of type "hashtag" of the name of that magazine, so it's an interesting difference between the two applications.
Finally, on Mastodon, hashtags do create tags of type "hashtag" in a post, which is sensible and uninteresting.
This post to you has also included a tag of type "mention" but no extra tag of type "hashtag". So, there you go.
Yeah this was purely a title test. The sad part is I do follow myself on from Mastodon. I made the same test on [email protected] and included my mastodon tag in the body. I thought the mention @[email protected] would at least ping my notifications there, but it didn't. There's also a thing on Lemmy where if you tab complete the name it puts the whole URL in the post, at least when typing a comment. So if I @[email protected] I would think that would ping me there.
So it didn't ping notifications, but now that I searched my @ on Mastodon it showed up on Mastodon. And Lemmy still hasn't let me follow my Mastodon account which sucks.
